Products Used
- Kinder's The Blend Seasoning
- Weber CRAFTED capable grill like the Weber Genesis or the Weber Searwood
- Weber CRAFTED Flat Top and System Kit
Ingredients
- Beer Brats (or your preferred type of brats)
- 2-3 sliced bell peppers
- 1/2 a white or yellow onion, sliced (add more if desired)
- Optional: sliced jalapeno peppers
- Kinder's The Blend seasoning
- Brioche buns
- Spicy mustard
Recipe Steps
1. Preheat the Grill
- Get your grill nice and hot, heating both the flat top and the open grill grate.
2. Prepare the Vegetables
- While the grill is coming up to temp, slice the bell peppers, onions, and jalapenos (if using) fairly thinly.
3. Cook the Peppers
- Once the grill is at temperature, drizzle some oil (such as avocado oil) on the flat top and add the peppers. Stir to coat them with the oil. After about 5 minutes, season with a dusting of Kinder's The Blend.
4. Add the Onions
- Add the sliced onions to the peppers. Cook until they reach your preferred consistency. I like them tender with a bit of crunch.
5. Grill the Brats
- While the vegetables are finishing, place the brats on the open grill grate and cook them until done, turning occasionally.
6. Cook the Jalapenos
- When the onions and peppers are almost done, move them to the side. Add the jalapenos to the flat top. Cook them separately or mix them with the other vegetables, depending on your preference.
7. Keep Vegetables Warm
- The vegetables will likely finish before the brats. You can take them off the heat or keep them on a very low setting to stay warm.
8. Finish the Brats
- Continue turning the brats until they are fully cooked.
9. Toast the Buns
- Add the brioche buns to the grill, oven, or toaster and toast them until slightly crispy.
10. Assemble the Sandwiches
- Once everything is done, take a toasted bun, spread some spicy mustard (and butter if desired), add a brat, and pile on a generous amount of vegetables.
11. Enjoy
- Take a bite and enjoy the delicious combination of flavors!
